Description
Dog Breed: Boxer. 5/17/2026 Murphy V is an owner surrender looking for a new home. Hi! My name is Murphy! I am a handsome 2 year old boy that is an owner surrender due to my owner starting work with a full time schedule. I am described as friendly, protective, playful, and affectionate! I am said to be dog friendly and do well at dog parks and when visiting family that has dogs. I have lived with a cat and we do not get along, so I will need a cat free home! I am said to be kid friendly, house trained, and crate trained! I eat dry food with warm water added and will sit and wait to be served with command. At night I sleep in my kennel and if the humans must be away, I will cry for a couple minutes and then be fine. When outside I have good behavior and do not dig or attempt to jump fences/gates. If I am outside and I see a bush, I will throw myself in it and give myself my own back scratch. I am fearful of the mop and vacuum and will try to destroy it, so those chores should be done when I am not out. Some of my favorite things are riding in the car, stuffed animals, bones, cuddling, and snuggling next to the humans! If you think I would make a great addition to your family, contact the rescue today and give them my name because I am waiting to meet you!

Overview:
The Boxer is a medium-sized, short-haired dog breed of German origin, known for its distinctive appearance and vibrant personality. Physically, Boxers possess a strong, athletic build with a characteristic square head, an undershot jaw, and often a docked tail and cropped ears (though these practices are becoming less common). Their short, glossy coat typically comes in fawn or brindle, often with white markings. Temperamentally, Boxers are renowned for being incredibly loyal, intelligent, and energetic, making them fantastic companions for active families. They thrive on human interaction and can be playful and patient with children, making them excellent family pets. While their energy levels require regular exercise, their adaptability means they can adjust to apartment living if their activity needs are consistently met. However, potential owners should be aware of certain health considerations, including a predisposition to some cancers, heart conditions like cardiomyopathy, and hip dysplasia, underscoring the importance of responsible breeding and regular veterinary check-ups.
